    Jesus Christ.
    (Said at morning and at night prayers)
    As I lay down this night to sleep,
    I give to thee my soul to keep,
    If any evils trouble me,
    O Blessed Lady guard me.
    There are four angles over my head,
    There are four corners on my bed,
    Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John
    God bless the bed that I lay on,
    Lady by the branch, Lady by the flower
    May the Lord Jesus save my soul
    At my last dying hour.
    (Said at Night before getting into bed.)
    O Sweet Jesus, watch over me in all my temptations particularly at the hour of my death when I will implore Thy Aid and the aid of Thy Most Holy Mother.
    (Said at morning and Night Prayers)
